"He was a gifted actor who knew the true meaning of being gracious and kind. He will be missed," she said in a statement.

Speaking to People, Forsythe's Charlie's Angels co-star Jackson praised his grace and charm.

"He had a grace about him that was incredibly awesome," Jackson said.

She added: "John had a great sense of humour, and he was wonderful."
